    told that a priest was saying mass up there. They used to come in horse to persue him. He was told that they were coming. His answer was to let them do their best. He started to pray and a thick fog set in, so tat the soldiers lost their way in the fog in the mountain and had to turn back in bitter disappointment. It was said that one of their horses got drowned in the mountain.
    Mr. Patrick Digedan.
